Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N448QS, is a Gulfstream G450 (GIV‑X) built in 2007 with manufacturer serial number 4100. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by NJI SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US; it has remained under corporate ownership since its manufacture. Notable registry actions include certification for up to 22 seats and standard executive reconfigurations, and the airframe’s market valuation is recorded at $25,000,000, reflecting condition and equipment levels consistent with late‑model GIV‑X examples.
The cabin on this specific G450 is certificated for up to 22 passengers and typically reflects an executive 12–16 seat layout with options for forward and aft galleys and forward and aft lavatories, allowing flexible mission planning between corporate shuttle, transcontinental executive transport, and high‑utilization charter work. Avionics are installed as Gulfstream PlaneView II, providing integrated flight management, EFIS displays and Honeywell/Thales‑class systems integration typical of the GIV‑X upgrade baseline, which supports extended IFR operations and long‑range cruise profiles. Based in Oklahoma City under corporate ownership, the aircraft routinely operates transcontinental and Gulf/Caribbean sectors within its 4,350 nm capability and benefits from the G450’s systems commonality for maintenance scheduling and component support.
The Gulfstream G450 (GIV‑X) family occupies the long‑range large‑cabin niche between midsize and ultra‑long‑range business jets, prized for transcontinental capability with high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft ceiling. Competitors include late‑model Bombardier Challenger derivatives and Dassault Falcon 2000/900 series aircraft, with buyer demand driven by cabin size, range and integrated avionics such as PlaneView II. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe emphasize engine program enrollment for the Rolls‑Royce Tay 611‑8C powerplants and documentation traceability; the listed valuation at $25,000,000 reflects those lifecycle factors and overall market demand for well‑equipped G450s.
